Several people told me they wouldn't sign the online petition about firing McTavish because they didn't think she was the only one to blame and it does make sense. I think it takes more then one to make this kind of mess.
Suppose McT already had her storyline writen out, & JC wanted her to go in a different direction, Wouldn't that throw everything off like what we have been seeing?

I do know the original storylines were very different. A major one was changed to accomadate a certain actor whom you all "love." LOL.

Yeah, that's a shocker, LOL. I won't sign a petition like that. It isn't soley her fault. Sure she had a hand in the way this show is right now, but she too has bosses and people she reports to and has to run things by. I say they take out all TIIC and start with ones who know what the hell they're doing.LOL!

I would really like to know who's idea was what...I'm pretty sure the unabortion was McT and Spermgate was JHC but really, I think McT and JHC should both go. Frons I'm iffy on....if he devoted the same attention and care to AMC as he does to GH, then I would be fine with him. I don't think he's as bad as they say, just inattentive to AMC and OLTL.

Frons has shown great dedication with GH which is why it's more sucessful. I agree about McT and JHC. Frankly, I'de rather JHC leave of the two- we all know why! LOL!

I think JHC should go, if McT stays she needs a co-writer. But I'd rather they both go in the end. McT has become incredibly predictable and favours certain character way too much. She's also shown a complete lack of imagination when it comes to storyline themes...the fact that everything is baby or child related is just wrong for a soap opera.
Frons...I know everyone accuses him of wanting only young people on the show, but I'm not sure it's true to the extent everyone says. His main priority is GH and they do not have a problem showing vets more often and not always focusing on younger people.

GH ignores its vets! Alan, Monica, Ned, Bobbie, Audrey... when was the last time they did anything? GH has been bringing back old vets and using them but completely ignoring the ones they have had for decades. Do you realize that Ned, Alan and Monica had absolutley nothing to do with Justice's murder SL?

yeah but at the same time, Sonny and Jason are always on (I consider them a vets, they've been there long enough), Luke, Tracey, Noah gets a bit, Robert, Anna, Skye...that's not so bad, all things considered. If they can't show case everyone, I think GH is still doing a fairly decent job. It's not twenty-something hour all the time like on AMC.

Yeah and GH isn't invading us with newbies like AMC is and putting vets out in the cold like AMC is.

GH annoys me by having Tracy, Robert and Anna front and center and ignoring Alan, Monica and Ned who put their time in on the show instead of leaving and then returning.... but AMC is VERY bad about new characters and recasts being pushed into front burner SLs, while Opal and Livia and Brooke are shoved aside like yesterday's garbage!

I don't see why they brought on Jamal but then canned Livia. Does anyone even realize he's her son?!?

LOL The only reason I know is because I read the press release when they hired him...but that is so LAME. They should have mentioned it on the show and had scenes with Livia. He doesn't even see his cousin Danielle until next week...and frankly I'm surprised we even get that.
